Victor von Schirach – Actor, Director & Producer
“Impossible to unsee, unforgettable to watch.”
Victor von Schirach, born in 1984 to a Swedish family with Polish and German roots, has built a multifaceted career in acting, directing, and creative producing. His artistic journey took a defining turn in 2002 when he moved to the U.S., following his father’s tenure at Penn State University. In 2004, his humanitarian spirit led him to volunteer in Thailand after the devastating tsunami, an experience that profoundly shaped his passion for storytelling and performance. He later refined his craft at the Academy of Music and Drama in Gothenburg, solidifying his foundation as a versatile actor.
Acting & International Recognition
Victor’s career has reached new heights with his role alongside Anthony Hopkins in Roland Emmerich and Marco Kreuzpaintner’s “Those About to Die”—a $140 million gladiator drama for Peacock, co-financed by AGC Television, High End Productions, and Constantin Film. Inspired by Daniel Mannix’s nonfiction book, the series explores the corrupt and brutal world of Ancient Roman gladiatorial sports, where sports, politics, and business collide. Victor’s involvement in such a large-scale production underscores his rising profile in the international entertainment industry.
A Dynamic & Skilled Artist
Beyond his on-screen work, Victor possesses a wide-ranging artistic skill set that enhances his performances:
• Dialects (Swedish, English – US/UK/AUS)
• Improvisation & strong character acting
• Piano (improvisation & classical), music composition
• Singing (tenor)
• Stunt driving & cooking
• Directing & creative producing
Victor actively seeks collaborations with visionary filmmakers, including Wes Anderson, Roy Andersson, and Ruben Östlund, while also engaging with emerging voices in the indie film scene. His passion for storytelling extends to working with female directors and exploring bold, character-driven narratives that challenge traditional cinematic storytelling.
A Strong Online Presence & Brand Collaborations
Beyond film and television, Victor has cultivated a significant online following, particularly on Facebook and Instagram. His influence extends beyond acting, as he proudly represents Sneaky Steve as a brand ambassador. This fusion of acting excellence, high-profile collaborations, and influential ambassadorship positions him as a multifaceted artist making a global impact.
Festivals & Industry Presence
Victor’s work has been associated with prestigious international film festivals, including:
• Sundance, Toronto, BFI London, Cannes (Marché du Film)
• Gothenburg, Stockholm, Melbourne, Sydney, Haugesund
With a commitment to compelling, high-caliber storytelling, Victor continues to push creative boundaries, both on and off the screen.
